Are 4x4s a menace on our roads? http://tinyurl.com/4bpuj At time of sending vote was Yes 66.35% No 33.65%  SignatureAndy Cunningham -- www.vehicle-diagnostics.co.uk "Don't anthropomorphize computers. They hate that."

"Some vehicles used on the roads, and frequently involved in motor vehicle accidents, use multi-wheel drive involving differential gear mechanisms.

"Some vehicles used on the roads, are involved in motor vehicle accidents. Drivers of other vehicle and pedestrians are usually severely injured in such accidents. Should such vehicles be banned and replaced by smaller vehicles with two wheels or horses?" Huw ""David G.

Another alternative might be: "Most vehicles used on the roads, and those most often involved in motor vehicle accidents, do not use multi-wheel drive involving differential gear mechanisms. Should such vehicles be banned?" Ian My gran had her arm broken by a pavement 'cyclist' therefore we should ban bicles too. Taking their safety logic to it's extreme- getting out of bed is dangerous!

So it could be argued that all or most motoring accidents are avoidable. Perhaps the drivers who cause the accidents should be banned. >"Some vehicles used on the roads, and frequently involved in motor > vehicle accidents, use multi-wheel drive involving differential gear > mechanisms.

My old Rover 218 has multi wheel drive (2 wheels) and uses a differential gear mechanism between the two front wheels .... What does the transmission have to do with accident prevention anyway? > >"Some vehicles used on the roads, and frequently involved in motor > > vehicle accidents, use multi-wheel drive involving differential gear [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > What does the transmission have to do with accident prevention anyway? Well said Tim, an accident can be caused by anything, a four legged drive horse for instance, or, maybe a four legged dog. A further possibility for causing accidents is a four wheeled car. The fact that all four wheels cant be driven in a four wheel (2 wheel drive car) at the same time makes for a poor argument. Shall we all start driving 3 wheelers?? >> >"Some vehicles used on the roads, and frequently involved in motor >> > vehicle accidents, use multi-wheel drive involving differential gear [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > >Shall we all start driving 3 wheelers??
